Definitions
- the present invention relates to a cutting head for a plant cutting apparatus, such as a trimmer or brushcutter.
- Plant cutting son are generally made by extrusion of a thermoplastic material including polyamide and have various shapes.
- the cutting threads are generally stored and marketed in the form of reels.
- the rigidity of the materials constituting them implies that they can not themselves remain in the form of coils and that the coil is therefore undone if it is not retained by any means of maintenance.
- the cutting wire coils are sold in packages of shape and size adjusted to the shape and dimensions of the coil, so that it is held in shape by the inner walls of the box.
- the wire is likely to unwind even once it is in place in the cutting head, making it difficult to control the length that leaves the head to make the cut.
- the document FR 2 967 548 proposes, for its part, a profiled wire comprising reciprocal retention arrangements so that, when the wire is wound on itself, each turn co-operates with at least one adjacent turn so as to retain it mechanically. .
- This wire thus makes it possible, in particular, to form a self-supporting coil, for example in the form of a disc.
- the US 4,024,635 cited above proposes a cutting head in which the self-supporting coil is trapped between an upper portion intended to be secured to the device for rotating the device, and a lower part removably attached to the upper part by a central nut.
- the coil is centered with respect to the head by its central recess, which is received by a cylindrical stud of revolution integrated in the upper part of the cutting head, and clamped between the upper and lower parts and the head, in a position such that the free end of the wire exits through an orifice provided in said upper part over a determined length to effect cutting.
- this cutting head has the disadvantage of requiring partial loosening of the lower and upper portions of the cutting head each time a new length of cutting wire is to be made available.
- this head only allows manual wire feeding, which requires the complete shutdown of the device.
- An object of the invention is therefore to design a cutting head that allows to use directly a self-supporting coil, that is to say not involving reeling operations and rewinding of the cutting wire, and in which extraction of a length of wire is simplified.
- the design of said cutting head must be compatible with the automatic feeding system "tap & go" mentioned above.
- Another object of the invention is to provide a cutting assembly comprising a cutting head and a self-supporting coil specifically adapted to one another.
- a cutting head for a plant cutting apparatus such as a trimmer or brush cutter, adapted to receive at least one coil consisting of a plurality of temporarily joined turns of at least one cutting wire and having a central recess, said cutting head comprising:

- a central mandrel adapted to support said at least one spool, said mandrel comprising at least one arrangement adapted to cooperate with the spool (2) so as to ensure a rotational connection between the mandrel and the spool, the mandrel being able to selectively turn relative to the body.
- the coil is flattened in that all the turns constituting the coil extend in the plane generally transverse to the axis of rotation of the head, or for example according to a flattened cone coaxial with said axis of rotation.
- the coil may also consist of a single wire wound on itself to form the contiguous turns, or at least two son, longitudinally bound in a separable manner so as to form a band, as described for example in the EP 0 435 795, the strip then being wound to form the contiguous turns.
- the coil is annular in that the turns do not extend inwardly of the coil to the center thereof, but preserve a central recess.
- said mandrel arrangement includes a housing for holding an inner free end of the spool.
- Said housing can extend according to a diameter of the mandrel.
- said housing is open at both ends.
- the peripheral surface of the mandrel is provided with teeth, so as to provide a friction fit of the teeth with the coil.
- the peripheral surface of the mandrel is provided with a plurality of ribs inscribed in a cone, so as to provide a frictional joining of the ribs with the coil.
- the cutting head further comprises a support plate extending radially from the mandrel and a pressing plate opposite to said support plate and adapted to exert a pressure on said at least one coil when said coil is in place on the mandrel.
- said arrangement of the mandrel comprises a complementary non-circular shape of the central recess of the coil.
- the mandrel has in the circumferential direction a shoulder adapted to abut against an inner free end of the coil.
- the section of the mandrel in a plane perpendicular to its axis of rotation can thus have the shape of the outline of a spiral, the radial segment connecting the two outer turns of said spiral corresponding to the bearing surface for the inner end of the wire. .
- the housing is adapted to receive a coil consisting of a plurality of temporarily contiguous turns of at least two cutting wires longitudinally connected in a separable manner, and the body comprises as many exit orifices as son.
- the housing is adapted to receive at least two coils stacked on the central mandrel and the head comprises as many outlets as son contained in all the coils.
- outlets of the son are circumferentially regularly distributed.
- the head advantageously comprises a drive device of the mandrel.
- the driving device of the mandrel comprises a drive member by manual action.
- the drive device of the mandrel comprises a pad integral with the mandrel, arranged outside the body against the restoring force of an elastic element, said stud being slidably movable along the axis of rotation of the mandrel between a position where the mandrel is locked relative to the body and a position where the mandrel is rotatable relative to the body.
- the head includes a wire lock device at the outlet port.
- Said locking device advantageously comprises a pivotable lug between a position of release of the wire when the cutting head is stationary and a position of locking the wire under the effect of centrifugal force when the cutting head is rotated by the motor.
- the head further comprises a hinged lid on the body by a hinge to close the housing of the coil.
- Another object relates to a cutting assembly for a plant cutting apparatus, such as a trimmer or brushcutter, said assembly comprising a cutting head as described above and at least one coil consisting of a plurality temporarily contiguous turns of at least one cutting wire and having a central recess.

- FIG. 2 illustrates a coil consisting of a single wire 20, which is wound so as to form contiguous turns 21.
- a first end 220 of the wire is in the inner recess of the coil, while the second end is a free end for exiting the cutting head.
- the turns typically extend in the same plane.
- the temporary joining of the different turns is carried out by mutual restraint arrangements formed on the wire, so that each turn mechanically retains an adjacent turn.
- such a coil may also be made by temporarily joining the wires by means other than mechanical restraint arrangements.
- the turns can be rendered temporarily joined by adhesion (for example by means of a chemical or thermal adhesive deposited, continuously or discontinuously) between the turns; by partial localized fusion of the material of the wire between two adjacent turns; by ultrasonic or friction welding.
- Figure 3 illustrates a coil consisting of two son 20a, 20b temporarily linked separably, said son together forming a kind of band which is wound on itself to form turns 21 temporarily joined.
- connection between the two son 20a, 20b is for example obtained by extrusion of a film 20c of the same material as the son during the manufacture of said strip.
- Said film 20c is thin enough to be torn in order to separate the son 20a, 20b over a certain length.
- turns 21 are rendered temporarily joined by one of the means described above with reference to FIG.
- the coil comprises two temporary junctions: one between the two son 20a, 20b, along the length thereof; the other between the adjacent turns.

- the section of the mandrel is thus complementary to that of the central recess of the coil.
- the height of the mandrel 13 (that is to say in the X direction) and the depth of the housing, may be adapted to receive one or more stacked coils.
- the cover 30 and the body 10 are connected by a hinge 31, so that the opening and closing of the cutting head to set up a new coil are particularly easy and fast.
- cover and the body can be assembled by any other means, for example screws distributed on their periphery.
- the two son 20a, 20b can either belong to two stacked coils of the type illustrated in FIG. 2, in the evening of a coil consisting of two wires, as illustrated in FIG.
